fix(layout+pages): default user=null + page audit sweep (P0 #7) (#15)
* convoy: scope fix-layout-default-user (P0 #7 — Layout maintainer-email leak)

The last remaining P0 ship-blocker from .convoys/ship-readiness.md.
components/Layout.js line 562 defaults the user prop to a real email
address (me@randallstillwell.com); any page that renders Layout without
passing user explicitly impersonates the maintainer.

Scope: components/Layout.js + audit of 17 pages that import Layout
(grep-confirmed list in convoy file). Single PR likely. Auditor cohort
skipped (no design-system, IA, or browser-smoke surface).

Architect to address:
  - Q1: logged-out rendering branch design (navbar, mobile-nav,
        auth-only items treatment)
  - Q2: page audit triage into always-auth / public-or-auth /
        anonymous-allowed buckets
  - Q3: brief decomposition (single brief / 2 briefs in 1 PR / fan-out)
  - Q4: whether to add vitest coverage for the logged-out branch
        (recommend yes — small surface, high regression protection)

Hard out-of-scope: branding (pick-a-name), auth-provider collapse
(single-auth-provider), Layout god-component split (god-component-split).

* architect(fix-layout-default-user): plan + briefs 1-2 (Layout fix + page audit)

2 briefs, single PR. ~12 files net (down from the 18 in the original scope —
10 of the 17 Layout-importing pages already pass user explicitly).

Brief 1: components/Layout.js default user=null + Sign-in CTA branch in
  UserProfileDropdown when logged out. Adds first jsdom test in the repo
  at test/components/Layout.test.js (Decision D2) with 5 regression-lock
  assertions. devDeps: jsdom@^29, @testing-library/react@^16.

Brief 2: page audit sweep — 7 pages need code changes:
  - Pass user={user} to Layout: scanner.js, deck-builder.js (×4),
    deck/[id].js (×3), decks.js (×3)
  - Replace page-level useState({email: 'me@...'}) → useState(null) +
    null-guards: profile.js, settings.js
  - Replace hardcoded const user = {email: 'me@...'} with useAuth():
    card/[id].js

Discovered second anti-pattern: profile.js, settings.js, card/[id].js
seed page-level state with the maintainer email. Folded into Brief 2 since
success metric "no real email address remains in any component default-prop"
reads naturally to include page-level seed values.

Decisions:
  A1 — Sign-in CTA replaces avatar+email+dropdown when user===null;
       hides auth-only dropdown (Profile/Settings/Logout/Admin);
       keeps public + community nav visible
  B  — Per-page bucket assignment (10 already correct, 7 need fix);
       full per-page table with justification in convoy file
  C2 — Two briefs in one PR (Brief 1 = Layout + test; Brief 2 = page
       sweep depends on Brief 1). C1 buries the conceptual change under
       mechanical edits; C3 is over-orchestrated for this scope
  D2 — vitest lock-in; first jsdom test in repo; same negative-regression
       style as test/lib/permission-middleware.test.js (synthetic-admin
       shape). devDeps jsdom + @testing-library/react

Risks tracked R1-R8. Biggest: R2 (useState(null) null-deref in 3 leaky
pages — mitigated by audit-pass mandate + manual smoke).

MobileNavigation deliberately NOT folded in: its user prop is dead code
(never reads user.*); different bug class; cleanup queued separately to
avoid scope expansion.

Flagged-but-deferred:
  - 4 pages still import useAuth from lib/auth-context.js
    → single-auth-provider (queued P1 #9)
  - Layout headers still render "Deck Hearth" / "DH" branding
    → pick-a-name (queued P1 #12)
  - MobileNavigation dead user prop → cleanup-mobile-nav-dead-props
    or fold into god-component-split

* feat(layout): default user=null + Sign-in CTA when logged out (Brief 1 of fix-layout-default-user)

Closes the source-side half of P0 #7 from .convoys/ship-readiness.md.
The page-side sweep (Brief 2) follows in a separate commit.

components/Layout.js:
  - Default user prop is now null (was hardcoded to
    { email: 'me@randallstillwell.com', role: 'user' })
  - UserProfileDropdown renders a "Sign in" link to /login when
    user === null instead of the maintainer's email + auth-only menu
    items (Decision A1)
  - All user.* accesses guarded with optional chaining or null checks
  - useState hook stays above the new null-user early return to satisfy
    rules-of-hooks (boot-the-brief caught this on the first try;
    see AGENTS.md Gotcha #11.5)

test/components/Layout.test.js (new):
  - First jsdom test in the repo (Decision D2)
  - 5 regression-lock assertions: no maintainer email ever rendered
    (prop omitted, prop=null), Sign-in link exists with href=/login,
    supplied email renders when prop is set, no "Guest" placeholder
    (locks A1 copy choice)
  - Mocks next/link, next/router (prefetch, replace, events, query),
    and theme-context.useTheme for jsdom safety under Next 16

package.json + package-lock.json:
  - Add jsdom@^29 and @testing-library/react@^16 to devDependencies
  - @testing-library/dom@^10 added explicitly (peer auto-install
    skipped it under npm 11; brief anticipated this fallback)

vitest.config.js (deviation from brief — see PR description):
  - Add esbuild { loader: 'jsx', jsx: 'automatic' } so vitest can
    parse JSX in .js files. Required to import any React component
    written in the repo's Next.js pages-router .js convention
    (AGENTS.md Gotcha #9). The brief said "no change" to this file,
    but JSX-in-.js parsing is a hard prerequisite for the new test
    to import components/Layout.js — the alternatives (rename test
    to .test.jsx; rewrite test in React.createElement) either break
    the test glob or still hit the same Layout.js parse failure.
    Other tests are unaffected (they import non-JSX modules).

Smoke output: see PR description.

* feat(pages): pass user explicitly + null-guard leaky page seeds (Brief 2 of fix-layout-default-user)

Closes the page-side half of P0 #7 from .convoys/ship-readiness.md.
Brief 1 (commit ddf8fd2) handled the Layout-side fix.

Per the architect's per-page bucket table (Decision B in
.convoys/fix-layout-default-user.md), 7 pages needed code changes;
the other 10 of 17 Layout-importing pages already pass `user` correctly.

Pass user={user} to Layout (4 pages, 11 call sites):
  - pages/scanner.js (1 call)
  - pages/decks.js (3 calls)
  - pages/deck-builder.js (4 calls)
  - pages/deck/[id].js (3 calls)
  (All four still import useAuth from lib/auth-context.js — that's
   intentional and stays as-is until the single-auth-provider convoy
   collapses the three parallel auth surfaces.)

Replace leaky page-level seed values with useState(null) + null guards
(2 pages, R2 mitigation):
  - pages/profile.js: useState({email: 'me@...', role: 'user', ...})
                     → useState(null) + ?. on every sync user.* read
                     + early-return guards in getDisplayName/getInitials
                     + conditional render around the "Member since" block
                       so formatDate(undefined) never runs
  - pages/settings.js: same pattern (single user.email reader guarded)

Replace hardcoded const with useAuth from lib/use-auth.js (1 page):
  - pages/card/[id].js: const user = {email: 'me@...'}
                       → const { user } = useAuth() (called unconditionally
                       at the top of the component; rules-of-hooks safe)

Verification:
  - grep 'me@randallstillwell.com' pages/ → 0 hits
  - 21/21 vitest tests pass (16 pre-existing + 5 from Brief 1)
  - npm run lint matches baseline (128 problems pre, 128 post; verified
    via git stash before/after)
  - Manual static read-through of every diff; ReadLints clean on the 7
    files
  - Dev-server smoke: /cards anonymous returned HTTP 200 with 0
    'me@randallstillwell' matches before the user's shared dev server
    became unresponsive mid-session (same dev-server-shared-by-user
    constraint flagged in Brief 1); interactive logged-in smoke is
    parent/operator gated

Flagged-but-deferred (untouched per scope):
  - 4 pages still import useAuth from lib/auth-context.js
    → single-auth-provider (queued P1 #9)
  - components/MobileNavigation.js still receives dead user prop
    → cleanup-mobile-nav-dead-props (or fold into god-component-split)

Convoys

A convoy is a multi-PR work-stream coordinated by an agent pipeline. One convoy = one feature, bug fix, or epic. Each convoy is a Markdown file in this directory plus an optional sub-directory of implementer briefs.

Convoy file format

Frontmatter (set by role-conductor, then appended-to by other roles):

---
name: <kebab-slug>
classification: feature | hotfix | docs-only | infra-only | server-only | config-only
success_metric: <one sentence>
skip:
  - <flag1>
status: open | in-progress | merged | shipped | abandoned
created: <YYYY-MM-DD>
---

Body sections (added in order by the pipeline roles):

  1. ## Why (Conductor)
  2. ## Scope (Conductor)
  3. ## Roles invoked (Conductor)
  4. ## Todos (Conductor → refined by Architect)
  5. ## IA (IA Architect)
  6. ## UX (UX Reviewer)
  7. ## Architecture (Architect)

After Architect, briefs live in .convoys/<slug>/brief-N-*.md. Implementers read only their brief, not the whole convoy.

Skip flags

The Conductor sets skip: based on classification. These flags map to pipeline stages that no-op when set:

Flag Skips
ia IA Architect
ux UX Reviewer
arch Architect
test Component tests
review Reviewer
visual Visual diff
a11y A11y auditor
design Design-system auditor
smoke Staging smoke
qa Manual QA
docs Doc Writer
flag Flag rollout

Never skipped (mandatory human gates): plan-approval, pr-merge, prod-promote.

Status lifecycle

  • open — Conductor created the convoy; no work started.
  • in-progress — At least one brief has an open or merged PR.
  • merged — All briefs merged to umbrella; release PR to develop pending.
  • shipped — Release to main complete; flag rollout (if any) underway.
  • abandoned — Convoy closed without shipping; reason in convoy body.

Update status by editing the convoy frontmatter as you progress.

Adding a new convoy

  1. Open Cursor in this repo.
  2. Prompt: "Start a new convoy: . Success = ."
  3. The role-conductor subagent writes .convoys/<slug>.md.
  4. Run subsequent roles in order per the convoy's Roles invoked list.

See .cursor/agents/role-conductor.md for the Conductor's full spec.

Multitask + worktrees (Cursor 3.2+)

Cursor 3.2 (Apr 24, 2026) added /multitask async subagents and native worktree management in the Agents Window. The pipeline uses both:

Audit fan-out — after an implementer ships a PR draft:

/multitask role-reviewer + role-design-system-auditor + role-a11y-auditor

All three read the same diff and emit independent comments. Use group id audit-<convoy>-<pr> so analytics can compute wall-clock savings.

Implementer fleet — after architect's plan is approved (gate 1), if slice_dependencies: declares parallel-safe briefs (depends_on: [], disjoint files:):

/multitask role-implementer briefs 1, 2, 3

Use Cursor's Agents Window to create a worktree per brief — one click each. The legacy scripts/wt.sh is now a deprecation stub.

See the multitask playbook for the full guardrail set.

Self-analytics

Each L2 role appends one event to .convoys/.metrics.jsonl via scripts/log-convoy-event.sh. The file is gitignored by default — events stay local. To opt-in to commit team-shared metrics, remove .convoys/.metrics.jsonl from .gitignore.

Aggregate across repos and render a dashboard with the agent-pipeline analytics scripts:

cd ~/code/agent-pipeline/analytics
npx tsx analyze-convoys.ts <repo-path> [<repo-path>...]
npx tsx render-dashboard.ts
open ~/agent-pipeline-data/dashboard.html

Schema: analytics/schemas/convoy-event.json.
